Breathability isn't amazing on the "Jordan 4". Your feet might get warm. Also, that outsole can be a bit slippery on super smooth surfaces initially. And like I said, the break-in period is real - don't expect instant, all-day comfort straight from the box. My final, honest take? I love this shoe for what it is. The Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro is a style icon. The break-in is worth it for that classic look. Would I recommend it? Yes, but go in knowing it's about fashion and heritage over supreme comfort. Comparing it to other Jordans... the 4 sits uniquely. It's more substantial than a Jordan 1 or 3, but often more comfortable for long wear, in my opinion. The tech is simpler than a Jordan 11 or later models, but that's part of its charm. You're buying into a specific era of design with the "Air Jordan 4 Retro". Now, a potential con for some: the break-in period. The heel collar can be a bit stiff at first and might rub. You'll need a few wears to get it fully comfortable. Also, if you're used to modern, ultra-soft sneakers, the firmer ride of this "Jordan 4" might feel a bit dated to you. Just being real.
